President Biden Criticizes Supreme Court’s Decision on Trump’s Immunity
Washington, DC [US], July 2 – US President Joe Biden has expressed strong disapproval of the Supreme Court’s recent decision, which grants former President Donald Trump substantial immunity from prosecution related to the 2020 election. Biden described the ruling as a ‘dangerous precedent’ and a ‘terrible disservice’ to Americans.
Biden’s Concerns
President Biden emphasized that the United States was founded on the principle that no one, including the president, is above the law. He warned that the Supreme Court’s decision fundamentally changes this principle, potentially allowing presidents to act without legal constraints.
Impact on Legal Principles
Biden criticized the Supreme Court for undermining long-established legal principles, including voting rights and civil rights. He highlighted that the decision could prevent a trial for Trump’s actions related to the January 6 Capitol attack before the upcoming election.
Call to Action
Biden urged the American people to consider whether Trump’s actions on January 6 make him unfit for public office. He stressed the importance of preserving democracy and expressed his dissent against the ruling.
In conclusion, Biden reiterated that the president should not be above the law and called for the American people to reflect on the implications of the Supreme Court’s decision.
